| 1st January, 2007 - 1:08 pm |  NHL.com - Anaheim added to its injury woes Sunday night when All-Star Chris Pronger broke his left foot during the Ducks' 4-3 loss to the Minnesota Wild.
A defense already missing top goalie Jean-Sebastien Giguere is now without the NHL's points leader among defenseman.
Anaheim tried to look on the bright side of losing Pronger, who had 40 points in 41 games.
"It's a good challenge for us," Ducks forward Teemu Selanne said. "If you have to get hurt, this is the time."
Pronger blocked a shot by Wild forward Mark Parrish in the first period, and appeared to be hurt right away. He tried to return to the ice but was in pain.
